weak move by their social media team

OH NO HE'S GOING TO MOVE THE TEAM TO PITTSBURGH

6/26/2018 10:32:05 PM

hmmm, i can put more money into a lucrative investment that reliably appreciates double figure percentages year over year (and growing)... I'd buy everyone else out too - if only I had the $$$,$$$,$$$,$$$

6/27/2018 10:08:40 PM

Sale is final. When is the wrecking ball scheduled for the Jerry statue?

7/9/2018 3:31:01 PM

I, for one, do not care if the statue stays or goes

7/9/2018 6:59:11 PM

It was a pretty tacky ornament even before the misconduct allegations, not even Jerry Jones put up a damn statue of himself in front of Cowboys stadium.

7/9/2018 8:28:11 PM

But I mean, does it impact how you watch or cheer for the Panthers? Scott Fowler and Chris Kroeger have gone on some big rants about why it must immediately be taken down. Who cares?

7/9/2018 8:40:40 PM

It doesn't bother me either, but I'm with the "it was tacky as fuck" to begin with crowd. I wasn't aware there were hot takes available on why it should come down immediately.

7/10/2018 9:12:01 AM

I’m cool with it coming down. Shouldn’t have been up in the first place imo. But it’s not gonna change my fandom or anything.

7/10/2018 10:48:04 AM

apparently Tepper is contractually obligated to keep the statue

his presser (volume is low af)

i like what i hear

7/11/2018 11:17:10 PM

The team will be relocated to somewhere in South Carolina by 2025.

7/12/2018 11:26:20 PM

Why are these relocation rumors so persistent. What's the rationale for moving? What could be gained?

7/13/2018 10:20:39 AM

The team ain’t moving.

7/13/2018 10:27:41 AM

The team isn't moving from the Carolinas. But Tepper mentioned numerous times that the team is important to both Carolinas and having facilities that are better or equal to what other franchises have is his top priority.

7/13/2018 1:54:21 PM

I get the vibe that they will build some kind of practice facility just over the SC line.

7/13/2018 1:56:07 PM

Makes sense to get it away from uptown if they are actually going to turn that into some sort of gameday/tailgate area for fans. They should look into the old knights stadium site in Ft Mill as a new complex. There's nothing out there and it's right off 77.

I'm also liking that he is pushing MLS in conversations too. BoA is a way better solution that's already in place than trying to use taxpayer money to build a soccer specific stadium in Elizabeth.

he also mentioned updating the current stadium and improving existing facilities (in addition to building a practice facility)

"@scott_fowler: Tepper on stadium: "This is the logical place for the stadium." Sounds very much like a "redo" of stadium is in store, but not a new location."

7/13/2018 4:25:17 PM

I'd look for them to build a fancy new practice facility and then moving minicamp and stuff there and no longer going to Wofford.

7/13/2018 4:34:35 PM

yeah that seems like the most immediate, common sense thing

7/13/2018 4:49:35 PM

And then move the team to Pittsburgh.

7/13/2018 5:27:27 PM

where would this team play if they did an uptown stadium 'redo'?

7/17/2018 2:13:18 PM

They've done renovations to BofA before, they just do them during the offseason

7/17/2018 2:30:43 PM

Clearly they'd just play in memorial stadium in Charlotte.

7/17/2018 4:54:34 PM

Ughhhhh. Thank God they signed Poe.

another stellar 1st round selection by Gettleman

7/25/2018 10:37:19 AM

Sounds fishy when they play dallas first.. Probably one of zekes groupies who wants him to do well

7/25/2018 11:35:30 AM

7/25/2018 11:51:29 AM

Wonder why she waited 5 days to report this to the police?

7/25/2018 11:52:28 AM

^you know why, its probably nothing but now she knows he is a pro athlete and she can squeeze some cash from him. Class C is like a traffic violation so nothing too serious but I guess depending on how Goodell rules it could be a suspension under personal conduct clause.

7/25/2018 2:26:10 PM

jesus fucking christ

7/25/2018 2:28:15 PM

just to be clear, mine was a joke. i mean, sure it could happen, but i wouldn't really think somebody would do that

7/25/2018 2:41:32 PM

RIP Daryl Williams

7/28/2018 12:52:36 PM

Last I saw was Williams should be back in 6 weeks.

7/30/2018 9:28:27 AM

Dudes that size recovering from tearing ligaments in their knees in 6 weeks is really a testament to how far we have come in medicine. That's truly remarkable but I am skeptical.

7/30/2018 11:33:16 AM

he’s not coming back in 6 weeks

anyways

RIP Ross Cockrell

Thug Newton

7/31/2018 11:47:40 PM

Dude's got a pretty strong bracelet game tbh.

7/31/2018 11:58:10 PM

LOL @ Kelvin Benjamin

Man, fuck that guy

8/4/2018 10:40:53 PM

Cam obviously isn't the most accurate QB, but he won the MVP and made the Super Bowl without Benjamin being on the field. And I don't care who is throwing you the ball if you are giving up on plays because you're too slow to get separation.

8/4/2018 11:33:44 PM

If only I'd played with some future hall of gamers, I'd have been better... No shit

[Edited on August 4, 2018 at 11:34 PM. Reason : Famers]

8/4/2018 11:33:50 PM

To be fair, he also mentioned Eli Manning.

8/5/2018 12:05:43 AM

Don't forget how he showed up to camp at 275 pounds. But, you know, it's Cam and the organizations fault. Good riddance

I do find it odd that so many high profile former players feel the need to speak out (DeAngelo, Smitty, Norman, KB).

8/5/2018 6:41:51 AM

The only one of those with a legitimate beef was Williams.

8/5/2018 8:19:56 AM

Pretty much agree but everyone on that list was handled by Gettleman, except for KB.

KB pretty much just ruined his career, he is toxic now.

[Edited on August 6, 2018 at 9:38 AM. Reason : .]

8/6/2018 9:37:53 AM

Maybe it was a facade, but I thought Cam and KB were tight? I know Cam took out a full-page ad in the paper to salute Kelvin after he was traded, and he's only ever said good things about him.

I can't ever remember a WR bashing a former QB to this degree -- especially a former MVP. If he thinks Cam was inaccurate, just wait until he sees what the Bills trot out this year.

If I'm a Bills QB, hearing KB say this doesn't exactly make me feel happy.

8/6/2018 9:51:53 AM

Especially a former WR that isn’t *that* good. It’s one thing if KB was putting up insane numbers and continued to do so when he was traded.
